“Don’t be scared, Dad. It’s not so hard taking care of us.” – Lisa Simpson
“Lisa, I’m not scared. I think it’s a great chance to spend some time with you kids. Your mother always gets to be alone with you, and now it’s my turn. . . . Does the time always drag like this?” – Homer Simpson
The joke here isn’t that it’s callous, cruel or uncaring. Time really does drag if you’re watching kids.
The joke here is a real joke, it’s both kinda funny and true. Too bad these stopped even before I wasn’t being babysat anymore.
